"poor quality for portraits with natural light"
Pros: very friendly controls and user interface, slim and cool design
Cons: no manual settings; shaky and blured images; no viewfinder
Summary: I bought this camera to take pictures of my newborn son. It's been impossible to get the camera to take close ups or portraits with natural light. The images I get are always blured. You have to be totally still to get a decent one. I've tried landscapes with and without zoom, and I get sharper images with my old canon s200 (2MP). All the scene controls haven't helped and the camera has no manual settings. The zoom is useles without a tripod. The battery life is poor, and not having a viewfinder doesn't help. This is also a problem when you have a lot of light and you cannot see what's in the LCD screen. I'm returning it and I'll get a Canon sd500.
